Try to look at things from his perspective. I used to live in a townhouse and my neighbor had an open-piped Harley that he'd park in his garage. Loud as F. You could hear it coming a mile away. Imagine how fun it was when he'd leave for work at 6 am and my infant son would wake up crying everyday.

Yeah it sucks to have to spend money to fix your car and your neighbor sounds like a douche, but the noise from your car is basically noise pollution that everyone around you has to endure at the expense of their sleep. When I lived in that same townhouse, I switched to a catted header so as not to annoy my neighbors and used my OFT to tune out the cold start. Keeping peace with neighbors is worth it, at least IMO.
